Stephen Hemminger dc1f8bf68b netdev: change transmit to limited range type
The transmit function should only return one of three possible values,
some drivers got confused and returned errno's or other values.
This changes the definition so that this can be caught at compile time.

Joe Perches 9e39f7c5b3 s2io: Generate complete messages using single line DBG_PRINTs
Single line log messages should be emitted by a single call
where possible.

Converted multiple calls to DBG_PRINT to single call form.
Removed "s2io:" preface from DBG_PRINTs.

The DBG_PRINT macro now emits a log level and is surrounded by
a do {...} while (0)

All s2io log output is now prefaced with KBUILD_MODNAME ": "
via pr_fmt.

The DBG_PRINT macro should probably be converted to use the
dev_<level> form eventually.

Joe Perches ffb5df6ce7 s2io.c: Standardize statistics accessors
Regularize the declaration and uses of
	struct config_param *config = &sp->config;
	struct mac_info *mac_control = &sp->mac_control;
and use
	struct stat_block *stats = mac_control->stats_info;
	struct swStat *swstats = &stats->sw_stat;
	struct xpakStat *xstats = &stats->xpak_stat;
and convert the longish uses like
	nic->mac_control.stats_info->sw_stat.<foo>
to
	swstats-><foo>
etc.

This also makes the statistics code marginally smaller
and presumably faster.

pfifo_fast_enqueue has this check:
        if (skb_queue_len(list) < qdisc_dev(qdisc)->tx_queue_len) {

intention of limiting in qdisc.

Anton Vorontsov 2394905f67 ucc_geth: Implement suspend/resume and Wake-On-LAN support
This patch implements suspend/resume and WOL support for UCC Ethernet
driver.

We support two wake up events: wake on PHY/link changes and wake
on magic packet.

In some CPUs (like MPC8569) QE shuts down during sleep, so magic packet
detection is unusable, and also on resume we should fully reinitialize
UCC structures.

This patch delays the initialization of DaVinci EMAC driver

David Ward 31ce8c71a3 ipv6: Update Neighbor Cache when IPv6 RA is received on a router
When processing a received IPv6 Router Advertisement, the kernel
creates or updates an IPv6 Neighbor Cache entry for the sender --
but presently this does not occur if IPv6 forwarding is enabled
(net.ipv6.conf.*.forwarding = 1), or if IPv6 Router Advertisements
are not accepted (net.ipv6.conf.*.accept_ra = 0), because in these
cases processing of the Router Advertisement has already halted.

This patch allows the Neighbor Cache to be updated in these cases,
while still avoiding any modification to routes or link parameters.

This continues to satisfy RFC 4861, since any entry created in the
Neighbor Cache as the result of a received Router Advertisement is
still placed in the STALE state.

Octavian Purdila 80a1096bac tcp: fix premature termination of FIN_WAIT2 time-wait sockets
There is a race condition in the time-wait sockets code that can lead
to premature termination of FIN_WAIT2 and, subsequently, to RST
generation when the FIN,ACK from the peer finally arrives:

Time     TCP header
0.000000 30755 > http [SYN] Seq=0 Win=2920 Len=0 MSS=1460 TSV=282912 TSER=0

0.238618 30755 > http [FIN, ACK] Seq=207 Ack=188 Win=2733 Len=0 TSV=283151...
0.238625 http > 30755 [RST] Seq=188 Win=0 Len=0

Say twdr->slot = 1 and we are running inet_twdr_hangman and in this
instance inet_twdr_do_twkill_work returns 1. At that point we will
mark slot 1 and schedule inet_twdr_twkill_work. We will also make
twdr->slot = 2.

Next, a connection is closed and tcp_time_wait(TCP_FIN_WAIT2, timeo)
is called which will create a new FIN_WAIT2 time-wait socket and will
place it in the last to be reached slot, i.e. twdr->slot = 1.

At this point say inet_twdr_twkill_work will run which will start
destroying the time-wait sockets in slot 1, including the just added
TCP_FIN_WAIT2 one.

To avoid this issue we increment the slot only if all entries in the
slot have been purged.

This change may delay the slots cleanup by a time-wait death row
period but only if the worker thread didn't had the time to run/purge
the current slot in the next period (6 seconds with default sysctl
settings). However, on such a busy system even without this change we
would probably see delays...
